Favre sent Romo text of encouragement

Favre sent Romo one in December, encouraging him not to let all the doom-and-gloomers get to him.

“I sent him one a while about back about all the talk of December and not be able to win games and all that stuff,” the Vikings QB said Wednesday in a conference call with the Dallas media. “I always had a lot of confidence in him.

“There are so many factors that go into winning and losing whether its January or September. He has faced as much preessure as he will ever face For him to step up (is impressive) and it’s not like has played easy games down the stretch. He has played tough games. He had to face the scrutiny of not being able to win those games.

“He has done exceptional job of handling that at a high level. He has nothing to prove.”
